"Minnesota's Cannabis Industry Cultivates Home Growing Opportunities"
As Minnesota prepares to legalize the use, possession, and home growing of marijuana for adults, cannabis businesses are finding creative ways to navigate the current restrictions. Grounded Gardens, a new cannabis lounge and dispensary, plans to offer hemp plants as test subjects for customers to learn how to grow cannabis until they can legally sell marijuana plants. They also hope to host seed swaps in the future. Meanwhile, Minneapolis-based seed bank CannaJoy is set to start selling cannabis seeds and offering home growing classes. However, the state's seed law and testing process have yet to be established, causing delays for businesses wanting to label and sell Minnesota-grown seeds. Despite these challenges, Minnesota home growers will be able to possess and share small amounts of marijuana flower while they wait for their own harvest.
